“…Our results have not shown any association with clinical outcomes of Aspergillus SPP infection, however our sample may be too small, and no systematic screening for this speci c infection was in place during the study period. The overall mortality in our study was 36%, which is similar to the largest series of ICU patients published thus far [9][10][11]. APACHE II score and severity of ARDS were strongly associated with mortality, which is in line with what previous studies have shown in COVID-19 [10].…”

“…The general characteristics of our population are similar to those described in other reports of COVID-19 in the ICU published so far [9][10][11]. Co-infections in COVID-19 have been described in previous studies (often within larger studies including all hospitalized COVID-19 patients), and reported incidence varies greatly, according to de nition criteria, the heterogeneity of patients included and the diagnostic methods used.…”

“…Due to its complexity and severity, it is not surprising that these patients may develop other concomitant diseases typical of CCU patients, such as thromboembolic events, 2 acute kidney injury, or secondary infections such as necrotizing pneumonia or acalculous cholecystitis. 3 , 4 , 5 The overall mortality rate of 31% described in Spanish series is higher in patients with these complications. 3 We describe 2 cases of complications that occurred in critically ill patients admitted for COVID-19.…”

“…Secondary superinfections in patients with CARDS are frequently observed (approximately 30%–40% of cases) and are generally associated with higher disease severity and the presence of AKI [ 155 , 156 ]. Most frequent infections include nosocomial pneumonia and fungal infections (particularly aspergillus) with or without sepsis and/or shock [ 156 ].…”
